Thank You God For Making Me A Woman, Empowering Women for the 21st Century

BOOK SUBJECT MATTER:

This book is about equality between men and women with the direct relation to Judaism.

Throughout the book, I want to demonstrate how, according to the holy Torah, men and women have always been equal. There are even areas where women are held in greater regard than men. The liturgical blessings and teachings of our sages are true, holy and meaningful for every generation, even if the simple translation of the words may seem disparaging. In Judaism, embarrassing another person or even an animal is the worst thing one can do. Therefore, if a statement in the Talmud or Jewish law seems to fall along these lines, we must understand that it was expressed out of love and sensitivity. Even teachings that may seem derogatory toward women carry the deepest secrets and teachings for all humankind.
